Descriptor receptor de melanocortina tipo 1
Entry term(s) receptor 1 de melanocortina
Scope note: Subtipo del receptor de la melanocortina que se encuentra principalmente en los MELANOCITOS. Muestra especificidad para la ALFA-MSH y la CORTICOTROPINA. Las mutaciones con pérdida de la función del receptor de tipo 1 de la melanocortina explican la mayoría de los rasgos recesivos de la piel roja y de la piel clara.

Scope note: A melanocortin receptor subtype found primarily in MELANOCYTES. It shows specificity for ALPHA-MSH and ADRENOCORTICOTROPIC HORMONE. Loss of function mutations of the type 1 melanocortin receptor account for the majority of red hair and fair skin recessive traits in human.
